You knew at some point this season, manager AJ Hinch and pitching coach Chris Fetter would have to find creative ways govern innings for rookie starters Tarik Skubal and Casey Mize coming off a pandemic-shortened 2020 season when they both made the leap from Double A to the big leagues. We’ve reached that point. The

The Tigers missed an opportunity to pounce on their opponent Saturday, getting shut out for the second game in a row by a score of 7-0 for its third-straight loss in Oakland. Casey Mize did not live up to his billing against the A’s, getting shelled early before settling in for a few innings, but
Jake Odorizzi was linked to the Mets last winter, though in a recent podcast appearance alongside former Twins teammate — and current Met — Trevor May on The Chris Rose Rotation, Odorizzi indicated that the team’s initial interest was generated by team president Sandy Alderson.

The Detroit Tigers are getting ready to return home. Following Sunday’s clash with the Oakland Athletics, they will have completed a 10-game road trip filled with good and bad. During this journey, the Tigers — with a 6-9 record entering Sunday — have shown they may be a streaky but competitive team this year. Manager AJ Hinch’s squad
It’s easy to get caught up in the hype of a prospect making his major-league debut, especially when their narrative is as improbable as Akil Baddoo’s — Rule 5 draft pick, home run on his first pitch, sent from a dying planet to fight for truth, justice and the Ilitch-ian way, etc. — has been
A pair of former top prospects and another well on his way took their turns in the spotlight Saturday. The trio did not disappoint. Tristan McKenzie struck out seven over five innings while Dane Dunning and Dean Kremer — squaring off against each other — combined to allow a run over 10 2/3 innings with

Detroit – The Tigers might need to resort to sorcery or some other form of black magic to break the hex against the Oakland Athletics. Or, failing that, try stringing a few hits together and scoring some runs. The Athletics rode three well-struck early home runs off rookie Casey Mize on their way to a breezy
Dana Gauruder | Special to Detroit Free Press What Casey Mize did after giving up a career-high three homers on Saturday may be just as portentous as what he did in his previous start. A meltdown and a quick hook could have ensued. Instead, Mize grinded through three more innings after allowing three bombs in a

Tigers starter Casey Mize speaks with the media following a tough outing against the A’s in Oakland. #DetroitRoots
Dana Gauruder | Special to Detroit Free Press A few early long balls made for a very long afternoon for Casey Mize and the Detroit Tigers. Mize gave up three homers — all in the first two innings — for the first time in 10 career starts, and the Tigers lost their third straight game in
The look on Casey Mize‘s face as he watched Matt Olson’s first-inning home run soar 438 feet out to right field summed up the pitch as well as his outing Saturday. The Tigers’ right-hander had the A’s slugger in an 0-2 count, couldn’t get him to chase splitters out of the zone, then left a

Are you familiar with the Mandela Effect? For some Detroit Tigers fans, the Mandela Effect is a term you may not hear before but what it is according to various sources including the New York Times and named by paranormal researcher Fiona Broome:
Detroit — Entering Saturday’s game in Oakland, the Tigers starters had allowed two runs or fewer in six straight games. As a unit, they’ve posted a 3.68 ERA while holding opponents to a .228 batting average. Conversely, the bullpen has scuffled — 7.24 ERA, .266 opponent average, 1.6 WHIP with an untenable 31 walks in 51
